Oooooooh....now as I don't want the game do I wait for a white Pro as a standard release or try for this ?.

and then I read this and think why bother...

Games industry analyst Michael Pachter has predicted that Sony will not release the PS5 until 2019 or 2020 – and is right to do so.

Speaking to GamingBolt, Pachter argued that this timing makes more sense than Microsoft’s decision to release the 4K-centric Xbox One X later this year, as by 2019/2020 the 4K market will be in a better place.

“My expectation that is that [PS5 is] not coming out in 2018. That is a 2019 or 2020 but probably 2019,” he said. “Sony is probably timing it better because they are going to bring out a 4K capable device when the 4K TV market reaches 50 per cent in the USA and 35 per cent in the rest of the world.

“I think Sony has probably got the next console cycle nailed down already. I think, they already know what they got to do.”

Pachter also predicted that the PS5 will be another partial upgrade along the likes of the PS4 Pro, and will be compatible with existing software.

“The PS4 Pro is better [from a technical perspective] than the PS4, so I think that’s a half step towards the PS5. I think the PS5 will be another half step,” he added. “How much faster can it be? It will surely support 4K. Will it support 240 frames per second? Great. Will it play games that were made for the PlayStation 4 Pro? That’s the question. I think it will.”

4K TV owners already have the PS4 Pro or Xbox One S to choose from. The Xbox One X, which arrives later this year, will offer an even greater variety of native 4K content, as opposed to current machines which mostly rely on upscaling techniques.

I really wouldn't listen to Pachter, Jeem, I've watched him for years and he basically just says the first thing that comes out of his head, he has been wrong about stuff more times than I can count.

You could always get the bundle then sell the Destiny 2 LE code if you're not into it and got some wonga back?

Pachter gets flak but I like him. Sure he gets sh*t wrong but make the amount of proclamations he does and your gonna. He gets shit right too. I thought on the Bonus Round thing he was the most grounded and grasped the industry better than most. Like that news there ^^ pretty much the way I'd call it. Generations tend to last 6 years (the last was agreed to be overlong) and the PS4 came out 2013. 4 years this November. Pro came 3 years in. I don't find it difficult to see another upgrade in 2019 if they call it PS5 or not. I think we're in for a Father/Son generation thing where the Grandfather is left behind. Not cut and dry generations anymore. In this case launch PS4 likely cut back on support to make way for the 4K period. People couldn't really complain as it'd have been out going on 7 years.

I like Pachter too (the site I moderate for hosts his new show Pachter Factor) but I take anything he says with a grain of salt as he's just as much an outsider as all of us lot on a lot of things. Activision, Nintendo and EA are his areas of expertise because that's who he advises for in the stock market so he has plenty of insight there.

But yeah, in general he knows about as much as we all do and takes a series of shots in the dark.

All I'm saying is I wouldn't base a decision on whether to get or not get a PS4 Pro on what he says, I personally don't believe the PS5 will be here until 2020 at the earliest.
